Not that tall.

Just a touch taller than a hobbit

I heard if he wins the election they'll budget for CGI effects to make him seem taller for public appearances,they've already approached Jim Rygiel & Andy Cook to see what magic they can do!

No just curious. It would be odd of me to be a heightist at 5 foot 8!
